The Maize ZmbHLH118 Transcription Factor Regulates Vacuolar Nitrate Loading by the NO3− Transporter ZmCLCa

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In maize, the bHLH transcription factor ZmbHLH118 directly binds to the promoter of ZmCLCa and inhibits its expression. Tonoplast‐localized ZmCLCa mediates NO3− influx into the vacuole to regulate intracellular NO3− homeostasis, modulating nitrate uptake and metabolism, plant growth, and grain yield.

Ferroelectric‐Polarization‐Driven Structural Engineering of Bi3Nb17O47 Anodes for High‐Performance Lithium‐Ion Batteries

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A transformative ferroelectric‐polarization strategy is employed to overcome the intrinsic limitations of tungsten bronze (TTB)‐type anode materials in metal‐ion batteries, using Bi3Nb17O47 as a model system. By exploiting the non‐centrosymmetric crystal structure and field‐induced ionic displacements, controlled structural engineering with ...

Identifying Cytokine Motif‐Containing, Immunomodulatory Bacterial Proteins in Human Gut Microbiome

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
By building and constructing HMM (Upper left, blue), the authors identify CMCPs in bacteria genomes and CRC related metagenomes and enriched CRC‐related CMCPs (Upper right, blue). They analyze sequence and structural similarity of hits (Lower left, green), test function with engineered EcN delivered to tumors in a mouse tumor model (Lower right, pink ...

Transcription Factor Promiscuity Drives Regulatory Rewiring and Evolvability in Gene Networks in Bacteria

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This special issue marking the University of Bath's 60th anniversary offers an opportunity to reflect on nearly a decade of research into the evolution of gene regulatory networks (GRNs) from members of the lab and elsewhere. Our goal is to understand how GRNs rewire and how new transcription factor (TF) functions evolve. Using an experimental

Rooting Species Trees Using Gene Tree-Species Tree Reconciliation.

Methods in molecular biology, 2022
Interpreting phylogenetic trees requires a root, which provides the direction of evolution and polarizes ancestor-descendant relationships. But inferring the root using genetic data is difficult, particularly in cases where the closest available outgroup is only distantly related, which are common for microbes.

From Gene Trees to Species Trees

SIAM Journal on Computing, 2000
Summary: This paper studies various algorithmic issues in reconstructing a species tree from gene trees under the duplication and the mutation cost model. This is a fundamental problem in computational molecular biology. Our main results are as follows.

Gene Trees vs Species Trees

1998
A phylogenetic hypothesis constructed from data derived from a single gene has been called a gene tree (1), but the concept has often been used more broadly to include trees constructed from molecular data not derived from a single gene, such as chloroplast restriction site data (2). This much broader definition may be unfortunate as different problems

Gene trees, species and species trees in the Ctenosaura palearis clade

Conservation Genetics, 2010
The growing use of molecular systematics in conservation has increased the importance of accurate resolution of taxonomic units and relationships. DNA data relate most directly to genealogies, which need not have perfect relationships with species limits and phylogenies.
